Lord Karsus 11-17-06, 08:36 PM	-We're not supposed to specifically talk about Novels. This rule has not really been enforced lately... -But, since Karsus is such a nice guy, he'll let you in on a little secret. There is no Neverwinter Nights novel. There was supposed to be a Neverwinter Nights Anthology, but the project never made it to publishing. That would explain why you can't find the book, eh?
Faraer 11-17-06, 08:42 PM	You'll have similar difficulty finding Shores of Dusk and Pride of the Lion. Some of the stories scheduled for the Neverwinter Nights anthology did get published elsewhere.
Dark Wizard 11-17-06, 08:54 PM	What was the premise of Pride of the Lion?
Faraer 11-17-06, 08:58 PM	Cancelled book in the Sembia series, to have been written by Ed Greenwood. There's a synopsis and more comments here (http://www.candlekeep.com/library/articles/sse/sse_040506-06.htm).
Dark Wizard 11-17-06, 09:28 PM	Thanks, Faraer, that was very enlightening.
mithralhammer 11-17-06, 09:36 PM	thank you very much takes a load off my back thank you all for the input!!! YOU ALL ROCK!!!

Faraer 11-21-06, 01:52 PM	Philip Athans's "The Staff of Valmaxian" in Realms of the Elves Clayton Emery's "Bold as Brass", here (http://www.claytonemery.com/BoldasBrass.html)
BrianCritchley 11-21-06, 02:36 PM	Philip Athans's "The Staff of Valmaxian" in Realms of the Elves Clayton Emery's "Bold as Brass", here (http://www.claytonemery.com/BoldasBrass.html) hmm the concept of the NWN anthology is differnt, I thought it'd cover the backgrounds of some of the major characters in it. which woulda been intresting, but then it's always intresting to see the effects a Computer game has on the offical realms. (for those who think NWN had no impact kindly note after NWN was released WOTC decided to detail the lizard creator race;)

BrianCritchley 11-22-06, 05:18 PM	-Even though, those lizard creatures in the game weren't "official" members of the Sarrukh...Must suck to have an existence that can't be substantiated and confirmed... ohh definatly I'm not at all saying they conaonized NWN however the spike in intrest in the Sarrukh no doubt was what lead to WOTC detailing em out.
Lord Karsus 11-22-06, 05:36 PM	ohh definatly I'm not at all saying they conaonized NWN however the spike in intrest in the Sarrukh no doubt was what lead to WOTC detailing em out. -No, I know that. I was just making an off-hand comment about those particular Sarrukh. The ones in the game were the ones that sparked the interest in the Creator Races, and led to them being given actual stat write-ups and Serpent Kingdoms and everything. But, officially, those same Sarrukh never existed. So sad for them...

So sad for them... there is a degree of irony to it aye. if NWN2 had the canon Sarrukh I'd be tempted to propose to module designers out there a "complete remake" of NWN1's original campaign, using lore gained since then to bring it more in line with realms canon
